Archbishop Justin Welby and the Bullingdon Fabulist
So should the Archbishop of Canterbury have spoken out against the forced removal of asylum seekers from the UK to Rwanda, 4097 miles away on the other side of the world! Yes, he has a duty to do so.

War tends to make killers out of normally decent people. There is a lot of turbulence within our world… Continue reading The Battle of Civilisation

The Young Pope and The New Pope
The Neapolitan director screenwriter and author, Paolo Sorrentino (51) places God on the stage, affirms Him, denies Him, seeks Him, refuses Him, invokes Him, “curses” Him; yet God, always remains the protagonist within these episodes and with Him humanity and their questions about Him.
